    Obama’s first proposal was for a single-payer system. That proposal lost by effectively 1 vote.

    Have you not noticed that this happens every time? They always manage to find that one vote to prevent anything truly progressive from happening. If we need 60 votes to make something change for the better in this country, there will be 59 yay votes, with 2 people voting “present.”

      They dont “find the vote” to do that lol. That’s exactly backwards. Democrats are a loose coalition of “not Republican” and some regions of the country elect nominal democrats that are not on board with every party intention

      You have Bernie Sanders one example, and Joe Manchin as another, to give a recent opposition.
